Coffee Region Test: Yemen

Coffee began in Yemen, and it’s not particularly easy to find. I ordered some medium roast and I’m looking forward to trying this small-batch coffee. The beans are grown in Yemen’s mountainous west at 1500 to 2100 meters. A network of small-holder producers meticulously grow and harvest this heirloom coffee by hand, and dry it in the sun. It is then carefully milled and packaged for export.
